Dear God. . .I don't want to be a girl. Everyone thinks I'm a weak person.
You can be proud to be a girl, Juthamas. You're not weak! God has made you very special and has given you His strength and power! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. I could tell you story after story of successful young women, and young men, from our Child Development Program. Formerly sponsored Compassion children who have gone on to earn diplomas in specialized fields and now work in the student centers they attended. They're also nurses, accountants, teachers, doctors, lawyers, businesswomen and businessmen. As you provide for and nurture God's little ones, you will see them grow and develop into responsible adults who love Jesus, and who are an influence for Him in their countries. This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion — for the children of the world.
